I am an evil giraffe. Who no longer blogs about politics.

I am, so horrific in fact, have taken steps to have my name legally changed. It turns out some jerk already owns the name Totally Meghan OchoCinco, so I have decided to go with Totally Megan McKane, which is how, it should be spelled anyway (the silent “I” in McCain doesn’t make any sense!)

[snip]
To continuing my point, this “Meghan McCain” actually had, the nerve to have a lawyer send a letter to, the good people of Red State.org, demanding that I stop impersonating her! Hello! Is my name, Totally Meghan McCain, a part of “Meghan McCain”? No. Is “Meghan McCain” a part of my name, Totally Meghan McCain? I think, as the old people say, that is QDE. Or putting it, in such a manner that independent, young voters who decide the next election, will understand, FACE!

A little bit of explanation is needed, here. As you may or may not have remembered, we had a very entertaining episode over at RedState recently where Meghan McCain’s attorney actually sent over a letter complaining, effectively, that RedState blogger Leon Wolf had done too good a job at duplicating Ms. McCain’s… sorry, this is a little hard to type out… writing style. Well, there were some people who were mildly unhappy about the fact that “Eric Ericson” (as a general rule of thumb: getting Erick Erickson’s name right is one of our little impromptu IQ tests that we have for our critics) apparently took the articles down. It was seen as a bit of a retreat.

Little did they know that Leon, to quote somebody or other, was not retreating; he was reloading*.

You can not only find Totally Megan McKane’s response over at Pajamas Media, which I understand is grinning nastily while slipping on a set of metaphorical brass knuckles even as we speak: you can also see this attorney’s letter that was sent in response to the original attorney’s letter. Now, I want to be clear: I do not claim that Mr. Badeaux has written a letter on Mr. Wolf’s behalf that is the equal to this attorney’s letter. That letter (by James Bailey) remains the gold standard. But I do feel that Mr. Badeaux’s letter would be permitted to hang out with Mr. Bailey’s.
